Chapter 776: Down-to-earth king

  William invited Yang Orange to go to the Netherlands with him on the phone, to meet and talk with the current King William Alexander of the Netherlands. If he comes to recommend, the share of a lithography machine should not be a big problem.

   After careful consideration, Yang Cheng decided to accept William’s proposal. In any case, the Dutch royal family is now very prestigious among many European royal families, and its strength ranking is also very high. It is also a good choice to use this opportunity to get closer.

After confirming the itinerary, Yang Cheng did not lose time, so he immediately arranged flight preparations and made an appointment with William to meet at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. Because this was a private trip, the Dutch side did not receive much fanfare, but only sent a royal family member. After receiving the two at the airport, they went to The Hague by car.

   At first, Yang Cheng wondered if the Dutch Palace was in Dam Avenue Square in Amsterdam? You must know that Yang Cheng had been looking forward to this palace, known as one of the New Eight Wonders of the World, before he came. He wanted to know what the palace supported by more than 13,000 wooden piles looked like and how it could stand upright. .

It’s a pity that William told him, "The princes of the Dutch royal family have lived in Huis Ten Bosch Palace in The Hague. The Hague is also the seat of the Dutch ZF. It is symbolic to live there. It is a pity that the previous queen has moved to Longburg in Bath for retirement. I’m afraid we won’t see it anymore. Huis Ten Bosch Palace is now undergoing renovations. When the renovation is completed, the current King William Alexander’s family will also move in.”

   The receptionist sitting in the co-pilot answered, "Your Excellency is right, but the king and queen have already set up a family banquet in Huisden Manor and will not neglect the distinguished guests."

   Yang Cheng smiled and waved his hands, "It's okay, you can go to the Dutch palace to see when you return, and you can take a look at the miraculous building."

The Huisden Manor of the William Alexander family is located in a forest in The Hague, only a 10-minute drive from the royal palace Huis Ten Bosch. The mild climate in The Hague is much better than the rainy climate in Amsterdam, and the air quality is much better. It also ranks among the best in Europe. It has a modern city atmosphere that combines ZZ and commerce, and it does not lack the poetic and artistic flavor of a rural town.

   Yang Cheng came to The Hague for the first time and fell in love with this city at first sight. He kept admiring William along the way. He loved this garden city more than the bustling London.

If William would follow along in private, he himself was upset about the **** climate in London, but when he went out, he represented the British royal family. There were also the reception staff and the driver of the Dutch royal family in the car. How could he say anything about his dissatisfaction. Can only stare at Yang Cheng to make him say a few words.

   It's a pity that Yang Cheng didn't care, and stared straight out of the car window. Xu was just after the rain. The air was very fresh and the fragrance of green grass lingered, as intoxicating as drinking Romani Conti.

The Netherlands is not big. Although The Hague is listed as one of the three largest cities in the Netherlands, its area is really only the size of a district under the jurisdiction of a first-tier city. After the car entered the city, it didn't take long to walk through the forest. Highway, Huisden Manor is located in the shade of green trees.

The characteristic of traditional Dutch architecture is the perfect integration of water and nature. The main building of Huisden Manor inherits this characteristic. It is only three stories high and the third floor is a sloping loft structure, which also takes into account the rich rain in the Netherlands. Compared with the luxury and magnificence of other palaces, this manor is similar to a small farmhouse. The main building looks only a few hundred square meters. The green creeper hides the original appearance of the building and blends perfectly into the forest. A small stream flows through the turmeric flowers in front of the door, like a fairy tale world.

   The car passed the wrought iron gate and bypassed the garden square in the vestibule. The current king and his wife of the Netherlands, dressed in the captain's uniform, waited on the doorstep with a warm smile.

   After the servant opened the door, Yang Cheng and William got out of the car and began a courtesy greeting.

As the eldest son of the former queen Beatrix, the 48-year-old William Alexander does not seem to have the aura of a king. At most, he is an ordinary person with a good life. On the contrary, his queen is graceful, enthusiastic and charming. The queen's temperament is vividly displayed.

It’s no wonder that Yang Cheng feels this way. William Alexander has long been named the most down-to-earth king. In private, he is an out-and-out sports fan, including tennis, sailing, golf, horse riding, diving, skating, and skiing. He is proficient in everything, referring to the past dudes, knows nothing about doing business, but talks about playing.

Of course, judging from his current performance, William Alexander did not show the prodigal side, on the contrary, he performed very plainly. It is more because of his very special personal "hobby"-flying planes, and appeared in many newspapers. Headlines.

  He is really big-hearted. In addition to fulfilling his royal duties, he also flies a plane part-time. For the past 20 years, he has been a pilot of KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and "attends" twice a month to fly the Fokker 70.

   However, as KLM is phasing out the Fokker 70, he is receiving new training to fly the Boeing 737.

He was really not afraid of an air crash, and left a bunch of mess to his daughter who was still in school. Yang Cheng thought with wicked fun~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When shaking hands with William Alexander, Yang Cheng asked with special curiosity. "His Royal Highness, I heard that you still insist on flying the plane. Is this true?"

William Alexander smiled at each other with his wife, and shrugged casually, "Of course, this is a hobby of my life, you know, when you are in charge of an airplane, and the passengers and crew on it, you must not Bring the troubles on the ground to the sky. In the sky, you can put everything down and concentrate on flying. I think this is much better than going to a bar to relax."

   "Don't you be afraid of being recognized by the passengers? Knowing that no one does not want to be an airplane piloted by a king, it will be a lifetime honor." Yang Cheng curiously slapped a little flattery.

Sure enough, William Alexander smiled triumphantly. “When I walked at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in a uniform and hat, almost no one recognized me as the king. There is no need to announce the name, and even if I need to speak out, no one can recognize it. First of all, I am not a big star; second, most passengers do not listen to the radio at all."

   When he said this, William Alexander appeared helpless, as if he was depressed because the passengers could not recognize him.

   With these few small chats between friends, the relationship between each other quickly got closer and the atmosphere warmed up, which also laid a good foundation for subsequent conversations.
